A striking black-and-white portrait by Irving Penn, this 1971 photograph captures an intimate moment between a Moroccan child and a lamb, rendered with Penn's characteristic precision and quiet emotional depth. The image reflects Penn's celebrated ethnographic work of the period, in which he traveled to remote cultures to document subjects with dignified simplicity against neutral backdrops. This rare print, numbered 3/16 and flush-mounted on aluminum, bears Penn's signature and Condé Nast stamps, affirming its place within his rigorously controlled and highly collectible limited edition body of work.
